strange thing is when i goto 'load database' in the EDITOR i get them all...
What you say reminds me of a problem I had with FM07 I think it was. I downloaded edited db's and unpacked them, used them and then re-packed them into 7-Zip as the compression was better. This caused me a problem when I unpacked the db again though, the editor wouldn't see the database and nor would the game.

You haven't mentioned anything like this so I doubt this is the problem.

well gonna start a new game and have the cd here, so maybe a wipe would be the best bet if it goes boobs up
Yeah might be best to remove the game and all the folders in your My Docs then re-install. Apply 8.0.1 patch then 8.0.2 then you should be OK. :)

i wonder if it is that i missed the 8.0.1, i have tried lots of things now and at a loss, posted on the SI forums, but no reply as yet. thinking reinstall myself.
 
You might not get a reply for a while. Might be better to search instead. :)

If you do re-install and then put the 8.0.1 and 8.0.2 patches on let us know if it fixes the problem or not.

looking like my disc is back at home... dam them no cd patches :p - asking my mrs to bring it in....... i'm scum and do no work!
 
she's a teacher and on half term, she stayed over last night hopefully being on holiday she will give my house a good tidy...
You live apart then?

i told her FM08 is a database i need for work......... which is close to the truth,.,,,
When I worked in a school I played Solitaire a heck of a lot. :eek::o

Thank God I had my own laptop. I could hide the screen from the students who would have had me for telling them off for playing games and logging into Hotmail. :o

she she has he own place and i rent with two mates, she is coming down to my work in about 15 mins, i have both patches downloading now. will wipe and delete all trace of the game. first thing i do when i get to work is load FM:p
 
Hmm you should be "listening" to everything she says about work but I can understand that deciding whether to change tactics or to play that reserve player can take priority. :D

yeah we fell out over me playing this........ she said it is a total waist of time and is pointless, in a way she is correct but i still play it anyway! ha ha
 
:D:D How did you win her back then? Offer her an improved contract with better bonuses? :o

Edit - Trying to sign Daniel Alves. He wants £105k a week. Board will only let me offer £100k. Balls! :(
